Though our adult lives took us our separate ways my love for my cousins never died. I talked very often to my children and friends about the good childhood memories.. sleeping on the trampoline, Christmas fun times that have always remained special to me.. I am very sad for the loss of our beloved Rip. I can reassure you all that Rip loved each of you dearly. In the conversations we had these last few months he always told me happy things about you all.
With all my love from your long lost cousin…

I grew up with George, but knew him as Rip. Have a lot fun memories from when we’re kids to being adults. So sorry he has passed.
I went to Centennial with George. He was a really nice and funny guy. He was very smart. I’m sorry for your loss.
God bless you and family.

Ray and family;
I’m so sorry to see the news of Rip passing. He was a gentle soul and I remember the days of summer swimming with all the Williams kids. Mary Rae and I are thinking about you all.
